Report by Director for Infrastructure Delivery (CMDE16).

 

A modification to the traffic calming measures in Spareacre Lane - originally constructed in 1993 - has been proposed by developers as part of works to create a new access for a residential development on the north side of Spareacre Lane. The report presents responses received in the course of a statutory consultation to remove an existing road hump at the eastern end of Spareacre Lane and to construct a new road hump to the same specification approximately 15 metres to the west.

 

The Cabinet Member for the Environment is RECOMMENDED to approve the proposals as advertised.

Approved noting that an adjustment to the scheme had been agreed which had been communicated to the objector.

Minutes:

As part of works to create a new access to a residential development on the north side of Spareacre Lane the developers had proposed the removal of  an existing road hump at the eastern end of Spareacre Lane - originally constructed in 1993 -  and reconstruction of a new road hump to the same specification approximately 15 metres to the west. The Cabinet Member for Environment considered CMDE16 responses received in the course of a statutory consultation on the proposal.

 

Mr Kirkwood confirmed that in order to try and meet some of the concerns expressed by a resident of the adjacent house who had objected the new structure had been moved by one meter.  However he was still unhappy with the proposal although officers felt the siting presented no real difficulties.

 

Having regard to the arguments and options set out in the report and the representations made to her at the meeting the Cabinet Member for Environment confirmed her decision as follows:

 

to approve the proposals as advertised noting that an adjustment to the scheme had been agreed to try to meet the objector’s concerns and that had been communicated to him.
